Why does Peter King think he still is revelent??

[Sean Pa Patriot]

2 Days ago he says Farve will stay with the Pack, he would rather retire than go to the jets, then says the bucs are his likley destination.. For someone who knows him so well.. he does not know it..

Then we had to hear a quote from Tony Romo??? Tony Romo, im sick of him as much as I am farve... Its ridiculous...

The only plus thing now Pats fans, we are now under the radar, and that is a good thing

Peter King wasn't the only one reporting this. Favre changed his mind, was convinced by someone, Mangini/Tannenbaum, whoever. Who do you think was Peter King's source? It was probably Favre himself, his wife, or his agent. Why would they lie to King?

AMEN. This team had the spotlight on them all of last season. Someone else can take a turn.

Agreed - Here's to hoping that we fly under the radar until we go 4-0 and everyone starts with the Undefeated crap.

I do know Farve flip flopped alot, and alot of the media were prop in the same boat, so I will agree with you.. But I will never understand the love fest for a guy that is 2-7 in the playoffs the last 8 yrs, while there is a certain guy that 15-3 in the last 7 yrs..

You mean to tell me Peter"I just got off the phone talking to(insert athlete/coach/personnel guy name here)" is misinformed???? Heavens to murgatroid...

 

[Krugman]

OOPS! Left out" King".....

I'm not sure why anyone thought the Pack would trade Favre to TB. They play TB this year and that game could be a tiebreaker that keeps the Pack out of the playoffs.

 

[Fixit]

In King's defense, not even Favre knew what the hell he was going to do before it was done.

I'm still holding out hope that Favre retires mid-season. That'd be awesome.

actually it dont think we will be under the radar. there will be constant dragging of the patriots into the brett favre story in nyc about he will beat the pats, good vs evil etc etc. media already fawns over him and now will fawn over his team and against the team they love to hate.

And no one ever talks about that certain guy.

How is Tedy Bruschi, anyway?

Give Peter King, his man crush is moving within a 100 miles from him. It must be distracting him. He is just excited about all the dates he can have with Favre at Starbucks. His MMQB column will just become a must not read because I am assuming that it will be a weekly love note to Favre.

 

[PlayMaker]

At least some former players are just as sick of this story as the rest of us:

[dhamz]

The lovefest for Favre is he gives them scoops, has them over for dinner, and does anything he can to make their job easier for them. It is as simple as that.

He and Barry Bonds are two-of-a-kind. ;-)

 

[dhamz]

The reason King thinks he is relevant is because he does things like pass on Brett's text messages to Ted Thompson and gets calls from Brett's family saying they want all those who love Brett to call him and tell him not to take the marketing deal and Peter needs to call him.

This makes him a complete joke in his profession where objectivity is required but he would never get that.

Where did you get the notion that objectivity is required in the profession? Clearly that is not the case.
